FARTHING Frederick of 35a Electric Avenue Brixton, Surrey died 1st January 1934 Administration London 9 February to Florence Mary Farthing widow. Effect £216 16s

thats amazing. At ;east we have florence now , thats brilliant, thanks very much.
Brilliant detective work from you all. :-D :-)

You've been hard at work on Frederick ArgyllGran. Those ERs are a good find as it helps confirm that death to give us and idea of his age. Think though the marriage certificate is essential to pin him down. We need the father's details from it or even if no father named Frederick's occupation may help.

There are several births of Frederick Farthings 1879-81, but all have middle names.
Maybe "our" Frederick just didn't use his middle names

Births Sep 1879 (>99%)
Farthing Frederick William Ipswich 4a 665


Births Mar 1880 (>99%)
Farthing Frederick Frank D Braintree 4a 493
FARTHING Frederick Frank S Braintree 4a 493


Births Sep 1881 (>99%)
Farthing Frederick Walter Cosford 4a 566

Births Dec 1881 (>99%)
FARTHING Frederick George Chard 5c 431
FARTHING Frederick William Ipswich 4a 731.


Probably not Frederick G 1881 - he was in London in 1911, although unmarried.
NOT Frederick Frank - by 1911 he was married to Ada.
Not Frederick William 1881 - he was married to Bessie by 1911.
Not Frederick William 1879 - he died in 1895.
Not Frederick Walter - by 1911 he's married to Sarah Theresa

So that's them all ruled out.


EDIT:
There's another Frederick Farthing, with no middle name, born Burton-on -Trent c1881, whose birth I cant see on FreeBMD, but he's also married in 1911, to Massina.

Florence Mary Farthing [and Frederick]
in the London, England, Electoral Registers, 1832-1965
Name: Florence Mary Farthing
Year: 1920
County or Borough: Wandsworth
Ward or Division/Constituency: Wandsworth
245-247 Upper tooting Road.

Both still there in 1921.
1924, 1926, 1928, 1930, 1932, 1933 at 35 Electric Avenue.

1935 - Florence on her own.

So the 1934 death for Frederick, posted by RG, will be the correct one.

Audrey Edith Farthing [and Florence Mary Farthing]
in the London, England, Electoral Registers, 1832-1965
Name: Audrey Edith Farthing
Year: 1936
County or Borough: Lambeth
Ward or Division/Constituency: Brixton and Kennington
Street address: 35a Maida Hill [actually 35a Electric Avenue]

In 1937 they're at 15 Blenheim Gardens, Brixton.
1938, they're at 142 Lowden Road, Norwood.
1939, at 42 Poplar Walk, Norwood.

Maybe?

Deaths Mar 1934 (>99%)
Farthing Frederick 54 Lambeth 1d 370

One of a few possibilities for Frederick, as we don't know his YOB:

Frederick Farthing
in the 1891 England Census
Name: Frederick Farthing
Age: 18
Relationship: Son
Birth Year: abt 1873
Birth Place: Chatham, Kent, England



EDI:

This is not the right Frederick, so I've deleted all the rest of this post.
He married an Elizabeth, and was with her and their children in 1911.

You may need to buy the marriage certificate to get Frederick's age and his father's name.
